easy to climb. Rose Coghlan's example and
Maggie Mitchells are talked over cortinu-
ally among them, and one day they look
forward to their turn. Now and then they
have little backing or q little talent behind
them and the turn may possibly come. A
city managers supe book is instructive in
this particular, containing as it does Ger
tain proportion OF not unfamiliar names. He
keeps list of 100 to $50 addresses always
by him of women who cali be depended on
Tor regular Supe duty in any time of need.
Running over such Il memorandum yeStel-
day, where the record had been accuuulat-
ing three years or more, 1 found Alice
Spencer, who has been taking good parts
with Joe Emmett this season, still on record
as supernumeraIy, and Sydney Arm
strong, who has made q hit with Joseph
Haworth as leading lady in "Hoodman
Blind" not Yet erased Victoria Hulskamp,
the coachmans bride, had left her autograph
i'll neat little round letters under Miss Arm
strong's, though she probably never report
ed for actual duty among the supes on the
stage.
Mrs, Langtry's maid, who makes her de-
but before the footlghts among the silent
gentry after she has arranged the actress
gown, stands for source from which good
many OF the superS, first and last, have come.
She likes to get out within sight Of the audi
ence instead OF waiting from act to act be-
hind, and has no objection probably to turn
ing an extra penny for pin money.
The supers get rehearsal Monday morn
ing sometimes, and quite as often not If
they are to take part in a spectacle there is
drilling enough; otherwise a word or TWO of
instruction is all that anybody has time to
fling them. Take them ali in all, they have
not an easy life of it, picking up precari-
GUS living from theatre to theatre and re
joicing when the rage for spectacle strikes
the town. <. +. II.

The Coal SUNNY.
THREATENED FAMINE IN THIS CITY AND WHAT
DEALER THINKS ABOUT IT.

A THREATENED FAMINE IN THIS CITY AND WHAT
DEALER THINKS ABOUT IT.
The scarcity OF coal which is now being felt in
Chicago, Brooklyn and other points throughout
the country, has been experienced to some extent
also In this city, and prominent coal dealer told
STAR reporter this morning that two or three
weeks ago he began to fear that there would be
coal famine here. 1.-THE difficulty seems to be-"
he SAID, that the means of transportation are not
Suflc1ent for the consumption. 1t is scarcity of
cars. not the scarcity OF coal, that Is the trouble
We have promises now that there will be cars suf-
the milder weather, viii avert the danger arising
from an insufficient supply. We have ceased to a
large extent in supplying the smaller yards. be-
cause we have been compelled to make provision
for our regular trade and for filling contracts
which we have made. 1t Is singular thing that
as sool as a cold snap comes orders come piling ill.,
showing that people as . rule do not lay In sup
ply. With the government offices and the public
schOoi buildings the provision for storage room
is SO meager that comparatively small amount
can be kept OF hand and so the contractors are
Obliged 10 store the coal. Il is the same case
with private houses. and il is very common
experience with people who use thirty or forty
TONS during the season to order their coal ton
Two AT Il Time. Some OF them have an idea that it
IS more economical, and that when the coal is OBJ
tanned Id small quantities, the servants less.
since the first OF January the price OF coal has
Deen advanced fifty cents on ton. but this is not
as great an advance as the wholesale dealers have
made on their prices to us. They advanced seventy
cents on the ton In spite OF this increase coal is
selling at less rates In this city than in Baltimore
Philadelphia and other places. 1 saw in THE STAR
thursday evening that they were asking IS per
ton In Brooklyn. We are promised more cars now
as nave said, and in that event there will be no
scarcity of coal experienced here"
Inc dealer added that it was difficult to deter
mine whether the lack OF cars for transportation
purposes was intentional on the part OF the rail-
Toad companies or not. In most instances tine rail-
road companies are identical with the coal compa-
Mes ana their interests are the same.
